I've just been re-reading S.M.Stirlings SF books & have been interested in his quoting of some of the newer songs that are becoming standards in the folk repertoire. He has a character sing a variant of Joan Baez's "Blessed Are" in his "The General" series & quotes extensively from the early Stan Rogers in his "Island In the Sea of Time" trilogy (even to the extent of naming a port "Fogarty's Cove"). Has anyone else picked up on contemporary authors starting to weave contemporary songwriters into their books?

Cheers

Dave
